Over the past 2 weeks I&#8217;ve started to see more obvious physical changes in my body. Now when I look at my naked ass in the mirror I&#8217;m not looking through the filter that allowed me to ignore things about my body I don&#8217;t like.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">The filter doesn&#8217;t come on anymore because I&#8217;m enjoying seeing the changes and I&#8217;m getting visual feedback about my efforts paying off.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">This isn&#8217;t meant to sound narcissistic, it&#8217;s just a mile marker in my acceptance of me and my acknowledgment that in fact hard work pays off.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">I had a moment hit me last night.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"> I was bored and couldn&#8217;t sleep. Every man knows that&#8217;s an excellent recipe for a good old fashioned J\/O session. I&#8217;m no exception and pretty soon I&#8217;m feeling pretty damn good even if I&#8217;m not sleeping.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">There I am, stroking my dick <\/span><span style=\"font-size: small\">edging myself and had been for about an 1 \u00bd hours at that point <\/span><span style=\"font-size: small\">when I happened to glance in the mirror and saw myself&#8230; Really saw myself for the first time in years.  <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Yeah I still have a little more around the middle than I should, but the spare tire is shrinking. My pecs are firming up and my bicep\/triceps are bulking out. My shoulder definition is starting to show and my legs are taking on more tone and definition. I looked at myself and thought damn! How had I missed those changes?<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Then I felt proud, even sexy, desirable, and yes horny.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">I guess that if you don&#8217;t like your appearance, and you&#8217;re always feeling tired and angry the effects are more insidious than you&#8217;d think.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">In my case, those feelings make me feel like I&#8217;m unworthy of pleasure in the form of sex. It&#8217;s like I&#8217;m punishing myself. Actually I&#8217;m doubly punishing myself, I&#8217;m doing the crazy ass commute, putting up with all the corporate shit, AND I&#8217;m denying myself the simple release that sex can provide.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">It had gotten to the point that my body would eventually just DEMAND I do something to relive the tension.&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">But even then, I approached sex with myself or another person as a \u201cChore\u201d akin to taking a dump&#8230; not as something that I really wanted to participate in. My body was doing it, my mind was just along for the ride as an unwilling voyeur.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span> <\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">As I&#8217;ve been more active, and getting stronger I&#8217;m much more interested in sex. When I&#8217;m lifting weights in the garage I&#8217;m watching porn. Seeing some of the muscular men in the films gives me incentive and a \u201cGoal\u201d state.&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;margin-bottom: 0in\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Granted sometimes during a workout a hard dick is problematic but it always puts a smile on my face.
